Four very different games being played this week, including a mini campaign.
28mm Pony Wars – Black Powder by Warlord Games
As part of a play test using Black Powder for Pony Wars, the Fort Apache mini-campaign from Wargames Illustrated (WI 363 Jan 2018 – Hurray for Hollywood) was played. Although we didn’t get right to the end of the campaign we did play out several encounters. With some special rules, and randomised movement for the Apache, the Black Powder system worked very well and gave a very enjoyable and entertaining game. (Could this be the first suggestion of a new BP Supplement? We will have to wait and see!)
28mm 1890s North West Frontier – North West Frontier by Tiger Miniatures
A small skirmish game using the new Tiger Miniatures skirmish rules and campaign system. Just learning the rules. Nice figures and fun rules!
1/3000 Battle of the River Plate – Victory At Sea by Warlord Games
Another ‘learning the rules’ game using this classic encounter from 1939 as the scenario. Teeny tiny ships!
28mm (Heroic) Ultramarines v. Space Orcs – Simple Sci-Fi Rules
Sometimes you just have lots of really cool models and you want to get them on the table to go dakka dakka.
